Cabela’s Incorporated released the following communication to its employees on June 30, 2017:

 

LOGO

To:    All U.S., Canada and Hong Kong Outfitters
From:   

Scott Williams, President

Charles Baldwin, EVP/Chief Administrative Officer

Date:    June 30, 2017
Subject:    Special Meeting of Stockholders and Stockholder Voting Information

 

    Special Meeting of Stockholders

 

    Stockholder Voting Information

Special Meeting of Stockholders

As announced on June 5, 2017, Cabela’s is holding a Special Meeting of Stockholders on July 11, 2017, at 8 a.m., local time, at the corporate headquarters in Sidney. The purpose of the meeting is to consider and vote on proposals relating to the proposed acquisition of Cabela’s by Bass Pro Group, LLC.

An employee lottery will not be available for attendance, and the meeting is expected to be brief. If you are a Cabela’s stockholder, you are welcome to attend the meeting by checking in as a stockholder at the front atrium desk.

As a reminder, the stockholder vote is only one step in the larger merger process. The transaction is also subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Stockholder Voting Information

In advance of the Special Meeting of Stockholders, all stockholders are receiving a packet of materials in the mail regarding this meeting. This packet contains a proxy card. A proxy card is a form of voting instruction that allows for “absent” members to vote by proxy on a decision, such as stockholders who do not wish to attend a stockholders’ meeting in person. Submission of a vote by proxy is a standard practice for stockholders of publicly traded companies.


If an Outfitter (or any other person) is a Cabela’s stockholder and receives more than one packet of materials, it means that person holds shares of Cabela’s stock in more than one account. For example, if a person holds shares in the 401(k) plan, in the employee stock purchase plan, and through a broker, that person may receive a packet for each one of those accounts. In order to vote all of his or her shares, that person will then need to sign and return a separate proxy card for the shares from each of those accounts because they are held in a different form of ownership.

To ensure all shares of Cabela’s stock are voted, stockholders may submit their proxies by one of three ways:

 

    Properly completing and mailing each proxy card received in the mail;

 

    By telephone using the different voter control numbers on each proxy card; or

 

    Through the Internet using the different voter control numbers on each proxy card.

Please contact Cabela’s Legal Department for questions regarding the voting of shares.
